Well I also enjoyed this small class so we had a lot of discussions and a lot of fooling around and a lot of questions and yeah we had a lot of interaction in the modules that I taught a lot of curiosity and then well there was this constant thing between Alson and me where Alson kept telling me that he said Delta artist but I could never find him you know like there was no evidence so but then one day he found me and he said I look I'm here actually proof that he's actually a Delta artist so yeah congratulations very well done and yeah really proud of you guys okay so Alvaro you you

distinction is well deserved you did your course work really well and I wasn't too involved in that but I was very involved in your thesis work and yeah you approached that with great depth and and enthusiasm and you investigated a lot of things and you are one of those students where my role was basically to kind of keep you on the track and not let you wander too far but wandering through the field of unknown of research is actually fun so I'll let you wonder a bit but then I try to push you back and and and you wrote a really nice thesis in the end where all these things came together but also some things that didn't work out you described and that's research you were searching for stuff and sometimes we find and sometimes we don't but the clear line of the thesis was was there and we
